Alarming data on feminicides in Spain
The statistics of the first quarter of 2025 reveal a disturbing reality: half of the registered feminicides have been committed by foreign individuals. This data, which has been analyzed by The Objective, is not an isolated phenomenon, but represents a continuity of a trend that has been observed in recent years.
Evolution of feminicides in recent years
If we go back to 2023, we will see that foreigners represented 44.8% of feminicide cases, while in 2024 this percentage dropped to 36.2%. However, the current 50% figure is worrying and emphasizes a significant increase in the participation of foreigners in these crimes.
Historical comparison
To contextualize this situation, it is essential to observe the historical series. In 2003, the percentage of feminicides committed by foreigners was only 15.5%. In two decades, this figure has tripled, illustrating a dramatic change in the dynamics of crime.
Geographic distribution of feminicides
Analysis of the geographical distribution of feminicides reveals that Andalusia and Catalonia concentrate almost half of the cases registered during 2025. This situation can be related to the increase in foreign population in these communities, which has grown significantly.
Probabilities by nationality
One aspect that stands out is the likelihood of committing feminicides according to nationality. The Moroccan population presents a risk 5.7 times higher than average, while the Romanians do it 3.4 times more than nationals. These figures highlight a complex reality that deserves to be carefully analyzed.
The political debate around the matter
The subject of feminicides and their relationship with the foreign population is extremely delicate. Many representatives of the left argue that sexism cannot be attributed to nationality, but is a cross -cutting phenomenon that affects all cultures. This perspective, however, is often tested when data is presented that could involve a correlation between immigration and crime.
Legal controversy
A Vox spokesman was recently denounced for his statistics exhibition showing that a high percentage of arrests in Barcelona involved foreign people. This incident reflects the tension existing in the debate on security and immigration in Spain.
Final reflections
As we continue to analyze data on feminicides, it is crucial to address the roots of the problem with a focus that combines cultural understanding with social responsibility. Only in this way can we move towards an effective solution to combat gender -based violence in all its forms.
